“আমার নেপলসের একটা একমুখী টিকিট চাই।” — The sentence in Bangla

In “আমার নেপলসের একটা একমুখী টিকিট চাই।” the pattern ‘আমার … চাই’ (of me … is wanted) makes a polite request, with the genitive ‘আমার’ instead of ‘I’. The destination ‘নেপলসের’ uses the genitive ‘-এর’, and ‘একমুখী’ (one-faced) means one-way.

English × Bangla: What changes from one language to the other

English uses the subject ‘I’; Bengali uses the genitive ‘আমার’. English puts ‘to Naples’ after the ticket, Bengali puts ‘নেপলসের’ before it.
